Essential for a healthy scalp and strong hair, the ATP molecule (below) energizes many biochemical cellular processes by undergoing enzymatic hydrolysis. Carnitine, a nutrient produced in the liver and kidneys from amino acids, and stored in the skeletal muscles and elsewhere, is responsible for transporting long-chain fatty acids to mitochondria, the energy-producing centers of cells. The body uses this energy for making hair.

Research has documented a significant increase in ATP equivalents in human hair follicles and roots treated with carnitine tartrate, recommending it for hair-care formulations. The effects were absent in placebo groups.

In another study, assessing the effects of a single application of carnitine tartrate via shampoo, again ATP levels in human hair follicles increased significantly.

The outstanding bioactivity of carnitine tartrate makes it ideal for hair-care formulations, delivering optimal energy for an optimal environment in which to produce hair.
